1 College of Liberal Arts, Cohorts: Placement of PhD Holders Introduction This report features the PhD-placement portion of a study looking at all graduate students who enrolled in College of Liberal Arts graduate programs between the fall of 00 and the fall of 007, inclusive. Because the study is based on a discrete set of enrollments, students who enrolled before the fall of 00 are excluded, as are students who enrolled after the fall of 007. The data presented here capture the last-known placements for the subset of PhD holders in our data set, as reported by the former students or by their home department, or as retrieved from online resources like Linkedin and Academia.edu. Our data set includes 805 PhD holders from these entry cohorts. We have placement information for 750 out of the 804 students who went on the job market (one PhD was awarded posthumously). Of the known placements, 76 (97%) are training related in the sense that a doctoral degree is a requisite for the position. 597 positions are tenured/ tenure-track, non-tenure-track, post-doctoral fellow and other academic positions. of the PhD graduates hold academic positions at Association of American Universities (AAU) institutions these positions constitute 7% of the total population of College PhDs from the entry cohorts. 46 of the AAU positions are at the tenured/tenure track ranks. Placement by Categories We organize placement information based on the categories used by the Office of Graduate Studies at The University of Texas. We provide below placement numbers by these categories, followed by the same information with some categories combined to allow for a broader view. We then focus on academic placements, and finally on AAU placements of PhD graduates. Information on data collection and position categories is provided in Appendix A Cohorts: Placement by Categories Placement Category Number of Placements in Category % of Total Placements Tenured/ Tenure-Track, non-aau 6.6% Non-Tenure-Track, non-aau % Private Sector/Industry 59 7.% Unknown % Tenured/Tenure-Track, AAU % Non-Tenure-Track, AAU % /9/5

17 Appendix A: Data Collection and Position Categories We collected placement data in three stages: We added data available through the Graduate Student Information System (GSIS) to our list of PhD recipients from the entry cohorts; we then updated these data based on internet searches for each graduate, working with departmental placement web pages and a variety of internet resources like Linkedin and Academia.edu. We sent the updated information to individual PhD-granting units, where the data were further updated based on knowledge available to the units. Our entry cohorts extend from fall 00 to fall 007, inclusive. Because the study is based on a discrete set of enrollments, students who enrolled before the fall of 00 were excluded, as were students who enrolled after the fall of 007. A final request for updates went out in late fall 04, and the report represent our best knowledge as of the early spring of 05. Only students whose PhD is in the College of Liberal Arts were included in our data we excluded students who entered a Liberal-Arts unit but whose PhD was in another college. The attribution to unit is based on the PhD awarded. A student who entered in History and received her PhD in Government is counted under Government. In categorizing the placement data we used the GSIS categories in the Department Summary Initial Placements, by Student Cohort reports: Tenured/ Tenure-Track; Non-Tenured; Postdoc; Other Academic; Government; Non-Profit; Private Sector/ Industry; Other; Unknown. We fine-tuned the categories of Tenured/ Tenure-Track, Non-Tenured and Postdoc to separate AAU from non-aau institutions in each category. As we looked specifically at AAU institutions, we included among the non-aau placements positions in highly-ranked international institutions like the Max Planck Institute, Oxford, Nanyang Technological University, University of New South Wales, University of Sidney, Lund University, Peking University, University of Edinburgh and others. In the Government category we included federal, local and international government positions. Of the 9 government placements, 6 are federal, local, and 0 international. In the Tenured/Tenure-Track category we included full professors, associate professors and assistant professors. In the Non-Tenure-Track category we included positions such as lecturer, adjunct ( ), visiting ( ), professor of the practice and the like. In the Other Academic category we included non-faculty positions where research is the primary activity (e.g., digital humanities curator, biostatistician) and similar positions that did not fit into the Non-Tenure-Track category. We separated the Other placements of GSIS into training-related and non-training-related. In the non-training related we included positions in which it was not obvious that a PhD was a requisite for the position. This is where we counted high-school teaching positions or various tutor, advisor or freelance positions where the information available on the school or the particular job held by the graduate did not allow us to assume that the PhD was a requisite. 7 /9/5

18 We grouped departments as follows: Humanities: American Studies, Classics, Comparative Literature, English, History, Philosophy, and Latin American Studies. The Teresa Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies is an interdisciplinary unit that produces both PhDs and MA graduates (more of the latter). The number of PhD placements included in our data set was too small to assist with a classification decision, so we made an arbitrary decision to include Latin American Studies in the Humanities. Languages and Cultures: Asian Studies, French and Italian, Germanic Studies, Middle Eastern Studies, Slavic and Eurasian Studies, and Spanish and Portuguese. Social Sciences: Anthropology, Economics, Geography and the Environment, Government, Linguistics, Psychology and Sociology. 8 /9/5
